At least one person was killed and two others wounded in a rush hour stabbing incident in Melbourne's central business district, police said on Friday, 9 November.

Police say they shot and critically injured the assailant after he attacked and stabbed a number of passers-by, killing one and injuring two others late on Friday afternoon in the centre of Australia's second largest city.

Shortly after 5.20pm, a body is seen lying under a white sheet on Bourke Street, near the entrance to Russell Place.

However, the exact reason for the stabbing and burning of the vehicle has not been ascertained as of yet.

Two officers got out of the auto and attempted to engage him.

Another witness on a passing tram told ABC Radio it seemed police had been trying to subdue a man who was waving something.

Australian authorities said they were treating the attack as an act of terror and revealed that the suspect was originally from Somalia and was known to intelligence agencies.
